Greetings Friends!

Welcome to my site! Here you’ll find thought-provoking articles & captivating lifestyle tips as I share my journey to inspire & empower others. You’ll also find details about my upcoming speaking appearances, updates & more. Before the accident in May of 2017 where I was struck by a car traveling 48mph while crossing the street in downtown Phoenix, I was an Alaska-grown wellness educator, minister, artist, speaker, certified yoga & meditation instructor & plant-based foods chef based in Arizona. The accident resulted in a traumatic brain injury & other physical limitations, however I now possess an even greater passion for sharing wellness, inclusivity, resilience, elegance & gratitude as I am able to. I have been quoted & featured in several magazines, news publications & social media outlets including: MANTRA Wellness magazine, thrive Magazine, 21Ninety, Brain Health Magazine & Success Magazine. Be sure to check out the next Resilient Roots Virtual Poetry Event, “In Our Own Words II”, April 19th at 12pm MST.

My mission is to promote joy, wellness, resilience & accessibility through an elegant, fun & festive approach, while advocating for disability inclusion & sustainability. I aim to inspire a global sense of community that supports the empowerment of all individuals.
